Tell us a bit about who you are and the people you reach

All age group, from any demographic that is into photography. Young audience appreciate the refreshing design of the logo. Mature audience would relate to the attention to detail and strong impact of uniqueness. Would like a modern clean design that is less traditional and more about detail, however I would like something from left field and would consider an unusual artistic approach. For the customer the logo has to be something unique and memorable, but still simple and elegant. There should be a correlation when they see the logo to the company name. I would like to see thinking outside the box or experimentation of unique non-traditional logo.

We are aiming for a professional and stylish feel, but a certain amount of playfulness may be added to the logo.

Attached files is something I would like to see incorporated in the company name or used with the logo. (Not sure if it would look good) Color wise I mean. It can be similar to the the attached pic but don't use the exact attached files as I do not have clearance. Something to that effect would be nice to see (if it would work for the logo concept) thx

Requirements

I would like to see some color. Company Name Studio (one color) & Bin (different color). Logo does not have to be a actual garbage bin (other designs that does not relate is OK), it can be a play on words or your interpretation on what a BIN means (basket, box, canister, carton, case, crate, receptacle)

Logo design must include:

-Logo with Company Name, Logo (Alone), Company Name (Alone)

-Scalable vector format (EPS & Tiff)

-1)PMS positive 2) PMS negative 3) B/W positive and 4) B/W negative
